I am honestly overwhelmed by how many people have joined this cause. We are nearing five hundred signatures and getting this number could really help put our request on the right desk. You all are the ones driving this forward.

I am honestly overwhelmed by how many people have joined this effort since I started it. If you could send this link to just one or two people who might care, it would help us reach that first milestone much faster than I ever could on my own.

Ireland needs to have this service available. if its a question of cost, savings can be found within the existing health services - start with the elimination of duplication of files and records, move towards the introduction of paperless systems for patient records, etc.
What a situation to find oneself in!!!! In need of both a pancreas and kidney transplant in ireland 2015 and no pancreas surgeon in place to perform the surgery since Mr. Hickeys retirement!!!
This campaign means alot to me, am also Type 1 Diabetic with CKD, told only today that my kidney function is at 30 so will in the future will be needed a pancreas and kidney transplant. HSE needs to appoint the surgeon immediately!!! Hope Rachel gets her transplant soon x She's an inspirational lady
As a kidney transplant recipient of many years I know the value of brilliant surgeons. Cop on HSE and do the decent thing & get a Pancreatic surgeon appointed asap.
As an insulin dependant Diabetic I think this could have a big impact on my life in the future. And of my family. This is a rapidly growing disease and is hereditary.
What inspirational stories I've heard.
I GO TO OUR LADY OF LOURDES HOSPITAL IN NEW JERSEY USA, THEY HAVE 5 TRANSPLANT SURGEONS ON STAFF. ONE SURGEON WILL BE IN LONDON THIS YEAR FOR A CONFERANCE, I TOLD HIM THEY NEED TRANSPLANT SURGEONS IN IRELAND, HE MIGHT WHILE OVER IN LONDON TAKE A VACATION IN IRELAND HIS NAME IS DR. ELY SABASTIAN 63 KRESSON ROAD SUITE 106 CHERRY HILL NEW JERSEY 08034 856-796 9340 FAX 856 547 0390 HE IS A YOUNG AND WILLING DOCTOR

It is unacceptable for a modern 1st world Health Service to allow such a gap in service to occur, and continue. Either provide the service directly, arrange for alternative cover, or redirect funding to enable Private service provision!
